Does this seem like unreasonable wear for the seats on a car with only 13400 miles?
it seems unusual to prep a car and have discoloration like that. I suspect they tried to address this and couldn’t. There are strong leather cleaners that will take care of dye transfers but if the clear coat and underlying color coat have been worn through, then maybe the typical leather cleaners could not clean this up.
Colourlock makes a whole product line with OEM color matches. Repairs look fairly easy. Get your eyes on the car and decide for yourself. You will never see paint chips and other scratches just from photos.
Might want to look closely at drivers door panel. In photo 16 it appears the door panel may be starting to warp and that’s a $2-3k repair depending on the dealer. Checkout the door paneling warping thread for more info.

Good catch.
seems like both seats have quite a bit of staining on them. Sounds like they have sorted it out but why photograph a car just to show that it has issues with the leather seats.
In that link, there’s so much glare, I can’t really tell what I’m looking at. Is it a gap between the leather door material and where it adjoins the window? In the attached picture, I’m not seeing anything in the area where the little bit of window is sticking up, but not sure if I’m looking at the right spot.
What do you think about the tires thing? Good tread, but replace because they’re from 2014?
And the Header? Unclear that it’s causing trouble. No faults, etc. but I wonder if it will crack/rust when exposed to snowy conditions. I’d be inclined to replace it. Even if I go with an after market header, they’re pretty pricey. Like $4k?
